A photograph of a man seated on an ornate golden throne with carved lion-face armrests and a golden back panel, raising his right hand to touch his nose while speaking into a standing microphone. He wears an orange saffron robe draped over one shoulder with a gold-trimmed sash, a long rudraksha mala with a large pendant, and a red tilak on his forehead. A small open book or papers rest on the left armrest. Behind him stand tall decorated pillars with orange-and-green banners printed with red and blue floral motifs, and orange and pink flower arrangements sit at the base of the dais. The scene suggests a seated discourse. Swamiji (probable): long swept-back hair, saffron robe, rudraksha mala and ceremonial pendant, seated on a golden throne as the speaker.
